Comprehensive Data Loss Prevention (DLP) for Rapid Deployment and Results. Unique among DLP solutions in its ability to support both a “top-down,” use case-based approach (focused on known data types or user groups) or a “bottom-up,” data risk discovery approach. Our “bottom-up” approach enables you to gain visibility even before you create policies by showing you where sensitive data is located, how it flows in the organization, and where it is put at risk.
